This is a very thoughtful film, and the picture presented by the director also brings this wonderful idea to the screen almost perfectly, giving the audience a very powerful visual impact and a surprising intuitive feeling. In a completely fictional world, there are two upside-down but completely parallel spaces. It can be said that the author of the story has constructed such an illusory world with a paradox of one and some laws recognized by the world. The upper world and the lower world are so incompatible, whether it is people or things, each abides by the laws of physics of its own world, so there are various wonderful pictures in the film.

No matter how novel the film's conception is and how creative the world is, the theme of the film is love, a love between people from two different spaces that cannot be tolerated and accepted by the world, and comes from the lower world. The male protagonist and the female protagonist of the upper world have known each other since childhood on the nearest mountain where the two worlds meet. After a happy childhood, just as the emotions between the two became increasingly hot, a powerful intervention from the outside ruthlessly brought the two together. people torn apart. Years later, when the male protagonist knows the whereabouts of the female protagonist again, all the rules in this world cannot stop the pace of love.

The film once again proves the power of love with a unique way of expression, showing a story of breaking through all difficulties and obstacles and pursuing true love. While the love story is the main line, the director also presented exquisite and gorgeous pictures, and the pictures of the film are very delicate and full of texture. In such a picture, the performance of the two leading actors is also not bad. The heroine Kirsten Dunst in the old version of "Spider-Man" plays the role of the female lead in the film, and the actor of the male lead - Jim Sturgis, the only movie that left an impression on me before this was "One Day", and then I checked "Cloud Atlas" and he was also in it, but I really don't remember when he appeared. Overall it's a pretty good movie.
